Canes Extend Bill Peters For Two More Years

In late July, the Carolina Hurricanes announced the contract extension of head coach Bill Peters until the 2018-19 season. While Peters has yet to guide the Hurricanes to the playoffs, he has improved the team and last season they earned 86 points, the highest point total for the team since 2010-11.

Peters won a gold medal by leading Team Canada to a championship in the IIHF World Championships in Russia this summer.
